Please DO NOT BUY any of these.
THROW THEM AWAY if your dog gets one as a gift.
Giving rawhide to a dog is NEVER a good idea.
Many of these so called treats end up with the dog “enjoying” some time in a veterinary surgery over Christmas. The vast majority of these rawhide products and treats come from China.
The chews are made from cattle or horse hides and their journey starts with the hides being soaked in a toxic sodium sulfide to remove the hair and fat. More chemicals are used in order to split the hide into layers which is then washed with hydrogen peroxide to give the white “pure” look and remove the rancid smell.
Now comes the pretty festive colors and the glue to form cute shapes.
On testing, these chews have shown traces of ARSENIC, MERCURY, CHROMIUM and FOMALDEHYDE.
If that wasn’t bad enough, they regularly cause INTESTINAL BLOCKAGES, POISONING from chemical residue and CHOKING.
The chews get slippery when wet and are near impossible to get hold of to save a choking dog.
Save yourself and your dog all the heartache, expense and suffering.
STAY AWAY FROM RAWHIDE!!!
